I like the Steelers picks but the offense needs sum work.
I don't see them going defense only rounds 1-3. A Tackle or WR is a must.
The defense is old but they are just a couple of pieces away on offense from another Super Bowl run. A new offensive coordinator might help too.
Round 3:
17. Pittsburgh (8-8) - Brennan Williams, OT, North Carolina
Pittsburgh’s offensive line is pretty broken up to say the least. This gives them a quality tackle with good value at the pick.
lol
In the second there's a few receivers available they could grab and Aboushi is there as well, could be any of those picks but Elam is the top safety in this draft imo so the value was too good and too helpful to pass on imo.

Why would the Falcons trade up one spot in every round?
Oh this guy.

I hope we take Milliner regardless. I'd rather have him over Manti. I'm fine with Tulloch, Durant, and Levy. Just need a playmaker CB and S (one that doesn't get hurt a lot).
Is Fluker the lineman that played all over and would even play C? Also, I'm fine with Mosley in the 3rd and letting him earn a starting spot. I don't want to see us use a first round pick on an OLB though.
Idk if Fluker ever played C.

Dont think we'll go after a receiver in the first with the way our defense played the last month or two.
Definitely a possibility, looked into a few options but I wasn't sure who I liked on D and what position needed to be addressed mostly or was due to any injuries.

13. Tampa Bay (7-9) – Dion Jordan, DE/OLB, Oregon
Tampa really needs a corner but Milliner and Banks are gone and reaching here for Rhodes or Amerson is ridiculous. They may trade out of this spot. But, if they make the pick, they’ll fill out their final linebacker spot with an extreme talent. Jordan may be best suited in a 3-4 system as an OLB but he is still very raw and very talented so he can mold into Tampa Bay’s system much like Von Miller does in Denver.
Inclined to say this is a shit move if we do this. IMO, we should be trading our 1st round + spare 4th to go UP for an elite CB. We do not need DE, we have 3.
Jordan is better than what you have. And yes, it may be a good idea on paper to trade up but first you have to find someone willing to move those spots for just an extra 4th, second there has to be a player worth that and there isn't and third, you have to find someone willing to move haha. Most of the time it's tough to make that slight jump, especially when all you're willing to give is a 4th.

There isn't any Elite CBs in this Draft. I don't believe any are even worth the top 10.
Agreed. Poyer, Trufant and McFadden are my favorite of the class though.

looks good to me. we need a true OG. Konz has held up but has been Whooped against elite talents that have good strength he will improve this offseason but he needs to move to center.. after that our next number one is De AB will be turning 35..... but the problem is that we have drafted tons of De over the years....
It was going to be DE in the first but I liked Cooper as a compliment to Konz on the inside of the line too much to pass on. Then Randle falling was too good to pass on too so there was that and finally was able to address the DE spot in the third which still landed you a solid talent in Jenkins.
